The Script Announce Intimate Dublin Show

21 July 2017

Plus special guest JP Cooper!

The Script have announced their return with two very special Irish shows at The National Stadium, Dublin on August 21st and the Millennium Forum, Derry on August 22nd with very special guest for both dates JP Cooper.

After almost 3 years since their last release, The Script returned last Friday with their brand new single Rain, out through Columbia Records. Rain was immediately added to playlists up and down the country and stormed straight into the Top 10 on iTunes - it was impossible to miss that The Script were back! Today the Irish three-piece announce more news - their fifth album Freedom Child will be released on 1st September and they will embark on an intimate tour around the UK and Ireland.

Freedom Child sees the band presenting a collection of urgent, timely, future-facing anthems that speak of both real-life events and real-time sonic adventurism. The album was recorded between London and Los Angeles and for the first time, the band chose to work with some outside writers and producers including Toby Gad and Nasri Atweh.

To coincide with the release of Freedom Child, The Script, who are no strangers to sold out arenas and stadiums, will get up close and personal with their loyal fan base at intimate shows around the country. The tour kicks off at The National Stadium in their hometown of Dublin on 21st August followed by a show at The Millennium Forum in Derry on 22nd August and will wrap at London’s O2 Academy Brixton on 1st September. Tickets are available to purchase on Friday 28th July from 9.30am with a fan pre-sale starting earlier in the week. For more ticket information, please visit

Rain is picking up a phenomenal amount of support around the world. The single stormed straight into the Top 10 on iTunes and was added immediately to the Capital A List, Heart A List and Radio 2 B List. The Script also joined Nick Grimshaw on his Radio 1 Breakfast show and Rain is the Single of the Week on Radio 2. It’s also been added to over 300 playlists on Spotify and the video, which launched on Friday, has already been viewed over 1.6 million times (see it here).
